Methods and systems for monitoring of software applications are described herein. In one implementation, monitoring data corresponding to at least one component of the application is obtained based on user preferences. The monitoring data comprises data pertaining to the software application at least one of an application level and a database level. The monitoring data is transferred to a monitoring buffer after the completion of first predetermined time interval. The monitoring data is further transferred from the monitoring buffer to a database after a second predetermined time interval. The transfer process is asynchronous of the application execution process.
